It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Rose Byrne plays a therapist overwhelmed by having to deal with her own problems while still treating her patients. Byrne is sure to get nominated for some awards, even if the film itself comes up a little short. My review is on letterboxd.

For the arthouse and weird movie fans who follow me, let me strongly recommend 'Universal Language'. It's about an alternate version of Winnipeg that is largely populated by Iranians, and where such things as a "Kleenex repository" exist. My review: letterboxd.com/bobnoxious23...
